Bhubaneswar, Dec 14:
The International Hockey Federation (FIH) today suspended two Pakistani players Amjad Ali and Mohammad Tousiq from playing in the Champions Trophy final after they were found guilty of making obscene gestures towards spectators following their semi-final win against India.
Hockey India’s imminent threat of boycotting all FIH events scheduled to be held in India during the next few calender years made the world hockey’s governing body reverse their earlier decision of just letting the players with official reprimand.
According to the release issued by FIH, a third Pakistani player Shafaqt Rasool, got away with official reprimand.
All the three players have accepted their guilt. (PTI)
